Your Skin:
All skin types, especially rough, dry, oily, dull + loss of firmness
Our Remedy:
Greek ritual. Modern skin renewal.
OUR IMPROVED FORMULA…
A rich, creamy treatment mask inspired by generations of Greek skincare rituals, bringing together Greek yogurt, Mt Olympus mountain tea, honey and pure Chios mastic with modern barrier-supporting Ectoin.
At the heart of the formula is Nefysi’s house-distilled Mt Olympus Mountain Tea Hydrolat, handcrafted by steam-distilling mountain tea collected from Mt Olympus in Greece.
Greek Yogurt and honey envelop the complexion in nourishing moisture, while white kaolin gently refines the skin. Ectoin helps support the skin barrier and protect against environmental stress, while Korean Red Ginseng and botanical-infused oils leave skin feeling supple, comfortable and revitalised.
Finished with pure Mastiha essential oil distilled from the legendary resin of Chios, this is a distinctly Greek approach to modern skin renewal.
The result: skin that feels soft, smooth, replenished and beautifully luminous.
Key Benefits:
- Deeply nourishes and hydrates dry, depleted skin
- Helps leave skin feeling softer, smoother and plumper
- Gently refines the complexion with white kaolin
- Supports the skin’s moisture barrier
- Helps protect against environmental and dehydration stress
- Leaves dull skin looking refreshed and luminous
- Combines traditional Greek ingredients with modern skincare actives
- Rich, creamy treatment texture without the harsh feel of a traditional clay mask
Why You Need It:
This isn’t another clay mask designed to leave your face feeling stripped.
Nefysi’s Greek Yogurt & Mt Olympus Renewal Mask combines the comforting nourishment of a creamy treatment with the refining properties of kaolin.
It is for the days when your skin looks tired, feels depleted or simply needs more — more moisture, more softness, more comfort and more glow.
And at its heart is something distinctly Nefysi: Mt Olympus mountain tea, collected in Greece and steam-distilled by us into the hydrolat used to create the mask.

αρχαΐα — Ancient Greece + Mythology
Ancient / αρχαΐα, refers to the Hellenes who lived 700 - 323 B.C. Our Greek yogurt face mask is named ‘Ancient’ due to the ingredients used - the same as those used by ancient Greeks (Hellenes).
The three main ingredients ancient Greeks used to promote healthy and an attractive complexion were olive oil, honey and yogurt. Homer extensively described skincare routines as part of spiritual rituals in the Iliad.
Honey and yogurt were used as part of anti-aging preparations because of their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties and honey also helped with certain types of acne.
Greek yogurt, a natural moisturiser which contains probiotics, proteins, vitamins, and minerals, made it great as an anti-aging mask and to revitalise dry skin and work wonders in cases of eczema.
Wild tea from Mt Olympus, dittany from Crete and Mastic gum from Chios where also ingredients used in skincare since antiquity.
